Making your study choice

What makes your heart beat faster? It might be a good idea to start discovering your interests. How? You can ask yourself the following questions:

• What subjects do you like at school?
• What are you good at?
• What kind of work do you like? 
• What do your parents or friends think suits you best?

• Join us online for a Digital Discovery Day. During livestream sessions, you can ask our lecturers and students all your questions about your (future?) study programme.

• Visit us on campus during an Open Day. Walk around the facilities and get the atmosphere of the city around. You will be able to meet the lecturers and interact with current students.

For more personal guidance, we can pair you with one of our current international student of your preferred study programme. You will be a student for a day! This is the perfect way to project yourself studying at Saxion. During this day, you can ask yourself the following questions:

• Can you see yourself doing this?
• Do the subjects appeal to you?

If you can answer yes to those questions, it's a match! If you're still unsure, you can ask questions to current students via IntoSaxion
